Dr. Burton.-Clergy Deceased.

four years in Italy, devoting his time to the public performance of his clerical duties at the English Chapel at Rome, and that of the Ambassador at Naples, and to the study and contemplation of the interesting objects with which those classical shores abound; and having qualified himself for a full and minute examination of those regions, doubly interesting as being the sources of both sacred and profane history, he set out from Malta in August last, on a tour to Egypt and the Holy Land, accompanied by Dr. Bromhead, of Cambridge, and Mr. Lewis, of the Navy. Having penetrated beyond the second cataract of the Nile, the party returned to Cairo, from whence they proceeded to Mount Sinai. The fatigue of this journey, the inclemency of the weather, and the privations inseparable from travelling in those countries, so weakened him (although he left Cairo apparently in perfect health), that after stopping a few days at Mount Sinai to recruit his strength, he was unable to reach Tor, and, under circumstances fraught with the most deep and awful interest, expired on his camel in the Pass Wady Hebram, near Mount Serbal. His remains were deposited by his companions in the burying-ground of a Greek church, Bear the Wells of Elim, a spot which he had expressed the most anxious wish to visit, and which, to use the words of his friend, Dr. Bromhead, "Could he have foreseen his fate, he would probably have selected as his last earthly abode."

REV. JAMES BURTON, D D. June 30. At his chambers, in Christ Church, Oxford, aged 80, the Rev. James Burton, D.D. Chaplain in Ordinary to the King, Canon of Christ Church, Rector of Over-Warton, co. Oxford, Vicar of Little Berkhampstead, Herts, Incumbent of the first portion of Waddesdon Rectory, Bucks, and for many years a magistrate for Oxfordshire.

to

This venerable and well-known divine was educated at Magdalen College, where he proceeded M.A. 1768, B.D. 1788, D.D. 1789, and became a Fellow. He was presented to the Rectory of Over-Warton, with the annexed Perpetual Curacy of Nether Warton, by W. Wilson, esq. and T. Cartwright, esq. of Aynho, in 1771; Berkhampstead in 1789, by the Marquess of Salisbury; and to the first portion of Waddesdon in the same year, by the Duke of Marlborough. In 1792 he succeeded Dr. Hemington as Canon of Christ Church. He married the daughter of Robert Jenner, D.C.L. and Regius Professor of Civil Law; by which lady, whom he survived many years, he had several children; all of whom are dead, except two daughters; one of whom is married to the Rev. Edward Marshall, M.A. late Fellow of Oriel College,

91

and now Incumbent of Iffley, near Oxford; the other is still unmarried. A brother of Dr. Burton, who is one of the Judges of the Court of King's Bench, in Ireland, and a sister residing in Oxford, still survive him. His urbane, kind, and hospitable disposition rendered him beloved and respected by large circle of friends. His faculties were unimpaired to the last; and he was remarkable for a most retentive memory, which enabled him to entertain his friends with anecdotes of the wits and eccentric characters of years long past; and the anecdotist is indebted to the Doctor for many tales of Oxford men, which, but for him, would long since have been buried in oblivion. His remains were deposited, on the 7th of July, in the family vault at Fetcham, near Leatherhead.
